We could blame consumerist society for the birth of objectified women. Indeed, let blame it for it, one more guilt doesn’t really matter. What is sure is that Linder Sterling doesn’t like this concept and in her retrospective, called Femme/Objet, it’s largely shown. She strongly criticizes the indecent use that advertising makes out of women, making them mere sexual objects.

The director of the Paris Museum of Modern Art, Fabrice Hergott, says about Femme/Objet “what we have is an ideal woman with a perfect and cold body, sexualized to the utmost, whose intellectual abilities are the same as an electrical appliance.”

Linder’s collages are, as she explains,”an excellent way to deconstruct the way of seeing the world imposed on us”.
